Anaheim’s Hiller stops 33 shots, Ducks earn 3-0 win over Florida Panthers

Hiller and Ducks blank Panthers 3-0

SUNRISE, Fla. — Jonas Hiller made 33 saves to earn in his second shutout of the season and the Anaheim Ducks beat the Florida Panthers 3-0 on Monday night.

Ryan Getzlaf, Teemu Selanne and Corey Perry each scored for the Ducks, who wrapped up a six-game road trip and snapped Florida’s five-game winning streak at home.

Hiller’s other shutout this season came on Nov. 5 in a 4-0 Anaheim win over the Nashville Predators. Hiller, who has six NHL shutouts, was coming off a 30-save effort in the Ducks’ 2-1 shootout victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Friday night.

Florida’s Tomas Vokoun stopped 22 shots. Vokoun was coming off his seventh shutout of the season, a 33-save performance in the Panthers’ 2-0 win over the New York Islanders on Sunday.

Hiller was perfect in his first game since signing a four-year contract extension on Saturday, that will keep Switzerland’s Olympic goalie off the free-agent market this summer.

Hiller’s stellar performance also came one day after Anaheim traded Stanley Cup-winning goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Sunday.

The Ducks went ahead 3-0 on Perry’s goal with 2:42 left. He scored with a slap shot from the right circle after taking a pass from Getzlaf from behind the net.

Selanne gave Anaheim a 2-0 lead with a power-play goal in the final second of the second period. James Wisniewski’s shot ricocheted off the left post and hit Vokoun in the back, and Selanne then tipped in the loose puck.

After a scoreless first period, Getzlaf netted an unassisted goal 15:17 into the second. He picked up the puck on a turnover by Keith Ballard and scored with a wrist shot from in front, beating Vokoun on his stick side.

NOTES: Vokoun was named the NHL’s third star for January. Vokoun recorded four shutouts for the Panthers last month. … The Panthers and Ducks last met on Nov. 9, 2008, with the Panthers winning 3-1. This is the only meeting between the two clubs this season.
